Is a "leakdown head" needed if I just want to push compressed air in and listen?

If all I want to do is that, then shouldn't a sparkplug attached to a hose attached to a standard quick connect give me what I need?

I'm assuming that if I need to get a leakdown head, then I'm looking at a whole tool, which will run me $140.
